Mac Jones was on fire in the third quarter against the New York Giants.
The New England Patriots finished the preseason undefeated after a thrilling 22-20 victory. Jones’ 17-yard touchdown pass to Isaiah Zuber and Rhamondre Stevenson’s nine-yard touchdown carry in the third quarter were the essential plays leading to the victory.
Jones finished the night throwing 10 of 14 for 156 yards and a touchdown to end the preseason on a high note. He was clearly juiced up after Stevenson’s touchdown while pacing down the sideline — so juiced up he completely disregarded Newton, who was attempting to high-five him.
Newton followed Jones for at least ten seconds before Jones acknowledged him and showed love back with a high five.
Cam needed his high-five 😂

Bill Belichick is still unsure of the Patriots’ Week 1 starter, but it wouldn’t be surprising if the rookie earned it.
